Hormonal Treatment During Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion Ameliorates Brain Death Induced Inflammation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Treatment of lungs during ex vivo perfusion with 17β‐estradiol and methylprednisolone improved graft quality. In females, treated and non‐treated groups presented reduced leukocyte infiltration and only the treatment improved perfusion flow. In males, treatment improved lung function by increasing compliance, paO2, and perfusion flow.

Pushing the Limit for Marginal Grafts in the Era of Machine Perfusion: A Tale of HOPE From a Leading Italian Institution

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
HOPE has improved outcomes in ECD liver transplantation and allowed the safe utilization of increasingly marginal grafts with favorable results. ABSTRACT Background The advent of machine perfusion (MP) has significantly improved post‐liver transplantation (post‐LT) outcomes, potentially enabling the use of increasingly marginal grafts and expanding the

An In Vitro System for Studying Toxin Transport Across Hemodialysis Membranes

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Development of an in vitro hemodialysis (HD) system based on mini dialyzers for evaluating hemodialysis membranes under physiologically relevant conditions. ABSTRACT Background Healthy kidneys regulate acid–base balance and electrolytes, produce hormones, and clear excess fluids and uremic toxins.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Evaluation of Functional Differences Between In Vivo Human Kidneys and Discarded Human Kidneys During Ex Vivo Normothermic Machine Perfusion

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Comparative MRI of in vivo kidneys and ex vivo donor kidneys during NMP revealed marked physiological differences and limited correspondence with conventional perfusion or injury metrics. These distinct ex vivo MRI signatures emphasize the need to consider parameters beyond conventional in vivo functional markers when assessing organ viability during ...
